From UCLA Memories to an Oceanfront Yes | Farbod & Sophia's Last-Minute Los Angeles Proposal

What began as a meaningful UCLA proposal turned into an unforgettable coastal surprise in Santa Monica. On August 21, 2026, Farbod contacted Son and Stephanie Le of Last Minute Photoshoot to help plan his proposal to Sophia at UCLA's iconic Janss Steps, where both had attended college. But on proposal day, Farbod changed his vision from campus memories to Pacific Ocean views. With little time remaining, we quickly traveled from Westwood to Santa Monica, scouted a scenic coastal overlook, coordinated a new meeting location, and prepared for the surprise. As Farbod and Sophia approached, he gave us a discreet thumbs-up, signaling it was time to capture their special moment. Discover how quick thinking, location scouting, and personalized planning helped bring this last-minute Los Angeles proposal together.
